"Incomplete" - Ramanath memories...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obJvM7ocaRM

25th Aug 09, it was my 24th birthday. Like every year, all my friends wished through calls, msg’s or e-mails. There was one person missing with whom though I had little contacts after the college, he never forgot to wish me. However, it didn’t bother me much as in this busy life even I had forgotten my friend’s birthdays. But when I came to know about the reality from my other friend Kitta, I was shocked!! He was in a horrible state since 1 week then, and I came to know about it on my birthday. Yeah, I wouldn’t have been able do anything if I had come to know about the fact… From the initial conversation, I came to know that he was suffering from some sort of fever and doctors were not able to figure out the actual problem. It had been one week since he was admitted to one of the famous hospitals in banglore. His condition was so bad that he was living with the help of four artificial machineries as support to his living organs like lungs, kidney… He was in coma… At the end of conversation I came to know that he was recovering/responding to the treatment and doctors were pretty confident of getting him out of danger.

At that moment, it was quiet a bad news for me but at the end I was relieved to know that he was getting cured. I hoped and prayed for his good health and then continued with my work. But I wasn’t aware of the worst news that was waiting the next morning. In fact nobody was expecting it. On 26th Aug 2009 Shomith called me early morning to inform the tragic news. Ramnath well known as Bhangi in our friends circle was no more... He was one of my good friends since we first met, when I had joined engineering. It is almost a month now, and sometimes it seems unreal. Wish it was unreal…

Life seems so uncertain and temporary. Yes, it is but this is not the way. It shouldn’t have ended that way… It brought the same question again in my mind, why lord Krishna said in Geeta “everything happens for good”… I think he forgot to add “Sometimes” at the beginning of that statement… Or may be it was missed while writing it on paper…

Anyways… Ram left the world leaving his memories which are still living in all our hearts. The following video is made with an intension to get some glimpse of those good old times together… Rest in peace my friend…

The door opened. “Who is it?” he asked anxiously.   “Why are you not speaking… who are you, why have you tied me here… please don’t do anything to me, please...” he begged again. But the person who entered kept silent. ***** Arman, like the other day was on his way back to his house after work. He wanted to go home early for some personal work. So, he skipped the cab timing and went ahead. His house was situated in an interior place, passing through those lonely streets which normally are taken over by the street dogs at night. Even though it was just 8’o clock, there was nobody on the road. And then, he suddenly got a feeling as if someone is followi

Fading childhood...

It was 12’o clock when I woke up last Sunday (thanks to the night shift on Friday)and heard my wife already in the kitchen, may be preparing something for lunch. With great difficulty, I dragged myself out of the bed. My feet refused to stand on the floor, as the tiles were still cold. Sudden rush of blood started flowing throughout my body as I felt early morning fainting sensation, though I had slept for really long hours… I started cursing and blaming the night shift and the kind of work I have been doing in the last few days. Some sort of frustration and disgust had already started developing in my heart as I entered kitchen to see what my wifey had prepared for the lunch. When I was sipping tea with some wooziness in the balcony, I heard some strange music (or shall I say ‘noise’ of the drum). I was about to complain about that too, (as I was in a great mood of complaining about anything and everything) I was stuck by what was happening on the street! A small girl in her early chi

"Is it a dream or..." ... part1

After a long, hard day… all I wanted is a sound sleep. It was already 10PM and I had nothing to fill my tummy since lunch. I didn’t feel like preparing anything as I was too tired. However, my hungry stomach didn’t let me sleep. I strolled into the kitchen to see if there is anything. Then I quickly prepared omelet with those sleepy eyes. I was so hungry that, I stuffed it into my mouth, almost chocked myself in a hurry. Once I was satisfied, I went straight to the bed. I got sleep in no time… **** “Hi Sunil…” , an elegant lady stopped me with a smile. I had never seen her before. How does she know my name? “Hi…ah..”   I was about to say something before she cut me short. “ wondering who am I? well, you don’t know me Sunil. But I know everything about you.” Is it? And how is that, and why are you saying all this. Is this a trap or something? Where am I? I started wondering. “don’t think too much Sunil. I am your friend and I am not here to hurt you. And this is not a trap” she giggled
